If you're a Percy Jackson fan, you've probably heard that the first book in new series The Kane Chronicles, The Red Pyramid, is coming out today, Tuesday, May 4 - and if you're anything like us at the bookstore, you can't wait to read it either! Instead of featuring Greek mythology, this series is about Egyptian gods and goddesses. It all starts when Carter and Sadie Kane's father blows up the British museum...
To celebrate the release, I interviewed my co-worker Josef to see what he thinks about this exciting new series.
Alex: Would you say that The Red Pyramid is your most anticipated release of 2010?
Josef: Absolutely.
A: We all know that Rick Riordan is awesome, but why do you want to read this book so much?
J: I've always loved mythology, and I was so happy that he got the myths right in Percy Jackson that I can't wait to see what he does in the Kane Chronicles. I also made the mistake of reading the first chapter online and now it's even harder to wait.
A: What would you say is your favourite kids' book other than the Percy Jackson series?
J: Evil Genius, obviously, The Graveyard Book, Treasure Island...
Thanks, Josef!
